DFCPROMOTION By Geneviève Fontaine Learning power Teachers and students will benefit from DFC’s enhanced junior education programs P ower to Play! continues to grow in popularity and has received a very positive response from teachers and students. DFC hopes even more teachers will benefit this year with the introduction of its new program, Power to Explore!, coming on stream in January. Also, DFC has just launched a new junior level curriculum program. It supports new Ministry of Education health teaching and is being offered to teachers during DFC’s fall training workshops. The program is ideal for teachers looking for new material to support the revised mandatory curriculum. A number of experts in education, child learning, cre- ative arts, communication, as well as teachers and students and DFC dietitians, were involved in the program’s development. Each of the three grade levels—4, 5, and 6—feature resources creatively tailored to students and teachers specific needs and interests.
